Abstract

In a door fitting for the upper guidance of sliding doors, which door fitting comprises a base body and at least one support element which is releasably connected to the base body, the base body and the support element are interconnected by means of two spaced joint areas. The first joint area comprises a snap-in connection with a certain pivoting capability. The second joint area includes a push joint with an axial degree of freedom which is oriented tangentially with respect to an imaginary co-axial cylinder extending around the pivot axis of the first joint area and parallel to the installation direction of the snap-in connection.
